This is going to be an absolutely great release, it is a definite grail of mine and like it has been said previously it is great music which goes with probably the best film in Romero's dead trilogy.
This really is great news! In recent years there has been a flood of Zombie films and even a TV series. However, the original Romero Dead Trilogy is still tops in my opinion (along with The Return of the Living Dead). I hope more vintage dead releases are on the way.
My dead wish list -
1. A Complete Dawn of the Dead 2. Night of the Living Dead 1990 - I think there was an album out a few years ago but may have been a re-recording 3. I agree with The Mutant - The Return of the Living Dead!! A masterpiece of a film!!

I absolutely love Return of the Living Dead. I understand that lots of the music as heard in the film is actually stock music (listen carefully to the original Blade Runner trailer) but the classic, catchy main title "Trioxin Theme" is so freaking good. If only someone could release even just that piece I would have a heart attack, a joy-filled heart attack.
I also understand that the main titles were done separate from the rest of the score by the two dudes who scored "Split Second"

The main title of ROTLD is a great opening for a great movie! I hope we'll see a soundtrack CD of it someday. I own the film on VHS (which I keep because of it's unaltered soundtrack), DVD and Blu-Ray as well as the CD with the punk/rock songs from the movie.
The Tar Man, the eye chart in UNEEDA Medical Supply, the graveyard striptease, split dogs. A perfect film.

Just watched DOTD one last time on Anchor Bay's gorgeous BD, before it gets the heave-ho and Scream Factory replaces it - yeah, lots of great cues I'm looking forward to getting on disc.
Love hearing the ROTLD trivia - one of THE best song soundtracks ever, as to its usage in the film and on record. I thought something was wonky about the DVD sound mix - SF, I haven't bought the BD yet, any chance of a fix!??!
Other screwed up audio tracks: HEAT is missing Pacino's line 'Ferocious aren't I' in the scene he yells at Hank Azaria - which broke my heart, since it's one of my favorite lines!!!
DEMONS (Bava, 1986) also has some audio funkiness, that hopefully will be fixed by the expensive upcoming BD deluxe thingy.
Day of the Dead and Warriors...so friggin awesome and so much looking forward to both of them
About the ROTLD, i own the old R1 MGM DVD and also have the UK R2 tin Blu-Ray and I would love to have the original Part 2 score too (have the DVD with the original score included too)
Day of the Dead and Warriors...so friggin awesome and so much looking forward to both of them
Me too...you betcha!
I sure hope most of DeVorzon's instrumental underscore will be included on the upcoming Warriors CD. There are several cues in the film (including the opening music) that weren't included on the original album.
I also hope the LOOKER score will eventually see the light of day on CD.
Most definitely bump! By the way, has anyone seen this short movie promo "The Three" that reunites some of the Day of the Dead cast and is shot in the same exact mines? Seems to be a fundraising project to get a movie underway.
